An online forum for exploring the conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics, quantum field theory and quantum gravity

Lev Vaidman

Lev Vaidman Submitted to “Quantum Nonlocality and Reality – 50 Years of Bell’s theorem” It is argued that the lesson we should learn from Bell’s inequalities is not that quantum mechanics requires some kind of action at a distance, but that it leads us to believe in parallel worlds. Vaidman – Bell paper

In the first graduate course of quantum mechanics I remember asking the question: “Can we consider the wave function as a description of a single quantum system?” I got no answer. Twelve years later, in South Carolina, after I completed my Ph.D. studies at Tel Aviv University under the supervision of Yakir Aharonov in which we developed the theory of weak measurements [1], I… Read more →
